https://media.trustradius.com/product-logos/BG/n2/X9KNWD7BTKJ8.PNGUser friendlyTotango was used as our CRM to track customer usage, data, touchpoints, etc. It was only used by our specific Customer Success department so other departments did not have visibility or access to it. Previously, we had several systems, including a home grown CRM to track customer information so data was dispersed across many platforms. This helped to consolidate platforms as well as provide a single pane of glass for all information regarding a customer.,I liked the attributes at the top of the page so you can see snipits of important information right from the customer page. The filter feature was really nice because you could sort or group customers by a number of different metrics to make it easy to find specific attributes of customers. I liked how simple it was to create a task and reminder for myself. It helped me to make sure no customers fell through the cracks.,Unfortunately, Totango didn't integrate with our internal data and other platforms well- like Salesforce. We likely didn't implement it well, but I didn't like having a different page for Customer vs. each individual product with the attributes all being the same. Too much duplicate work. Apparently not easy to run reports on data.,7,Improved customer retention. Increased insight into customer trends and data.,Gainsight,26 to 50 peopleTotango ReviewTotango is an awesome solution for Customer Success. It allows CSMs to have a consolidated view of their customers' overall health. It eliminates the need to work out of your inbox as a to-do list and improves employee productivity and efficiency!,Right when you log in, you have a clean view of what your daily to do list is. This is comprised of both manual and automated tasks. The overall interface is very visually appealing. Reporting is simple and easy.,I do wish that the system would not log me out as frequently. The searching capabilities could be improved.,8,Totango’s task list was awesome to work out of because we all know how messy working out of an inbox can be! It gave a clear list of daily activities that was easy to digest and take action on.,Gainsight,51 to 100 peopleTotango- Great start for Customer ManagementIt is effectively a CRM for our customers in the Customer Success department. It is for tracking, centralized note-taking, and eventually automating simple tasks and alerts based on, among other things, customer health.,Tagging things differently to be able to see groupings of activity types. Organizing customers in an easy and efficient way. I really like the way tasks are organized in Totango. Easy to see and manipulate the things I have to do that day, week, and month.,The way we implemented it, there were too many manual attributes to edit. In our scenario, things were segmented by customer, but then individually by product within that customer. That was an added obstacle for daily use.,8,Easier to track revenue opportunities for a non-sales-focused team Allows other teams to view customer status and get real-time updates for being able to continue support and sales process,Gainsight,Salesforce.com, Slack,26 to 50 peopleLooking for something better stillTotango was being used to help us gauge customer health. The goal was to use it to see who needed touch points and mitigate churn from our product. It was mainly used by our CX team.,Totango is fairly robust. Integrates with a lot of things. The ease of use seemed decent.,The implementation was a nightmare. The consistency and making it work our team failed. Just plane hard to keep up and running.,6,We have not seen a positive ROI from Totango. We hoped to get a leg up on churn, but kind of saw Totango as a flop. At this point, we saw little help in retention.,Intercom,Postmark, UberConference, Loom,11 to 25 peopleTotango for Data Driven Customer Success TeamsTotango is currently used by our Customer Success organization. We implemented Totango so our customer success managers can have more visibility into health/activity metrics per client in their book.,Being able to port over custom data into Totango was easy with our data team. Creating segments off of the data that we gave Totango and create tasks when a customer would fall into a specific segment,Creating campaign programs is something Totango could improve upon.,9,We were able to create an engaging onboarding campaign through Totango,Front, Slack, Asana, Dropbox,6 to 10 peopleIt Actually Only Takes One: TotangoOur Customer Success and Renewal Sales organization uses Totango to provide insight into client utilization, client health, contract status, and client "TouchPoints" and interactions with the CSMs and Sales team. Allows us to create playbooks (Sets of actions) for our CSMs for certain conditions like a new contact is in play, or client has a support incident logged. It helps address the need for more granular real time insight into client health so we don't have to rely on lagging indicators like NPS or CSAT Survey scores. It is critical we get out in front of any potential client issues as well as understand how our CSMs are interacting with their portfolio of clients.,Totango really allows flexibility in dashboarding a client contract. You can pull in all the relevant metrics into one spot to help make efficient use of CSM and management time. Integrates well with Salesforce contract records. This is nuanced, but other vendors interact at the "opportunity" level in SFDC. For Services execution, it needs to be focused on the contract. This allows a lot of flexibility in designing the flow. Reporting is pretty easy to set up. You can slice and dice the segments and create reports based on these segments. There are a wide range of "TouchPoint" options in Totango, so you can log Kick Offs, QBRs, Renewals, Escalations, Nurture... TouchPoints. Super easy for CSMs to add and Management to report on.,While the TouchPoints are flexible, they display on the date entered in. This assumes that all TouchPoints are put in when they are being done. Would like to see them allow the ability to backdate TouchPoints. Report setup is a bit quirky. Not bad, but you have to wrap your head around how they do it. Would like to see more chart options, but this is me being geeky.,9,Helped us reduce churn by extending our view. Less stress on our CSMs as they can manage everything in one place that is NOT their email inbox. Better Management to Executive level reporting.,,Salesforce Service Cloud,11 to 25 peopleTotango is pushing to be betterTotango is currently used to manage our client usage. It is used by CSMs, AMs, product managers, and marketing. We have several workflows implemented and have started to send campaigns. It allows us to be more pro-active and anticipate potential issues with our clients. The business is really getting value from Totango and more and more people are using it beyond the CS team.,Track client usage Define workflows Integrate with SalaesForce Integrate with Zendesk Triggering campaigns,Not all features are properly integrated - like success plays and segments. We are using Totango to generate all the on boarding tasks but are managing them on SalesForce as Totango was somehow limited Campaigns are fairly basic - difficult to monitor who has received one. Not integrated properly with SalesForce or Hubspot Segments and Reports can have limitations Data and activities limitation,9,Easy to extract information about our clients Easy to start being more pro-active Support the one-to-many strategy Still needs a lot of work on project management Some parts of the software need to work better together,Gainsight,11 to 25 people,50,2Do you really know if your customer is happy with your product and willing to do a renewal? Totango knows.Totango is being used to minimize the impact of unexpected churns; to measure and increase sales and the customer success teams' productivity and to get product optimization insights. Today, it is used mainly by 3 teams: customer success, operations, and product development. Customer success is totally guided by Totango's insights. They constantly monitor their account's health and design strategies to increase customers' satisfaction together with the operations team. The health score given by Totango is even in these team's business goals related to compensation and bonus. The health scenario is also analysed by the company directors frequently in order to understand the impact of customer success' actions.,Account's health and changes overview: In the homepage, which is your "dashboard", you can clearly see your portfolio's health and what has changed since your last update. In this way, it is easy to get fast insights and move accounts to your "attention center". Health history: It's easy to see health changes over time and by clicking in the date range, you see what criteria were impacting this health at that time. Account's hierarchy: For my business, it's really important to be able to group accounts and have more than one level of customers (companies and groups of companies, for example). This way, it is possible to design and deploy strategies to different decision makers. Easy health profile set up: The Health Profile set up page is really easy to use, with simple calculations features to determine what is good and poor health for your customers. Tasks and touchpoint monitoring: Although these features have some room for improvement (e.g.: edit options, paragraph, bold or topics could make a huge difference when you want to record long conversations or detailed topics), they are really user friendly and make it easy for the account manager to write down notes on the customer's updates.,Retroactive actions: Today, Totango is not able to understand past data and make changes on customer's health based on that, which is a representative gap when you don't have real-time integration with your product. Experience for offline data upload: Since we don't have a real-time integration with our product (we upload on a CSV data basis), it would be better if Totango was more adapted to this kind of use. An example of a gap in this matter is that Totango doesn't understand the "timestamp" when the actions were made, which means it is like all the actions you uploaded were made in the second you were uploading your CSV, instead of when it was actually made by your user. Although I know this development is on the product team's radar, it still does not have any forecast for the launching. Block users to see data of different portfolios: When you have a big company and you don't want to share your revenue information or key contacts data with sales/CS managers who don't own the specific account, you have a certain gap with Totango. I know they are aware of that and planning some improvements, but today you cannot hide any data from any user, which means every Totango's user in your company can search and find data from every account. Its impacts are minimized by the portfolio set up (a segment of your homepage/dashboard), but the users are still able to find the data using the accounts search field.,9,Integrated account management: Since we have 3 "owners" for each customer, Totango helped us to get these 3 managers together to pursue the same goal: positively impact the customer's health. This team gets together once a week to review health changes and plan actions to increase good health and reduce churn risks. Team management: Today the company can easily see what managers are performing better and develop training with these managers to the rest of the team. The Customer Success Director is also able to focus attention on more sensitive accounts and managers. Engagement: Using the Portfolio Health Score, we've created a rewards program to motivate and reward managers on improving account's health. It's helped a lot with inserting the tool in the day-to-day customer management.,Gainsight,HubSpot, Ambassador, MailChimp,6 to 10 people,12Imperative for Customer Success and Many Other TeamsPrimarily customer success and support is making use of Totango. We are using the tool to track user engagement to see the various actions specific users are taking. This helps us better understand use cases and challenges a user my face. Beyond that, it gives a nice quick glance into seeing what is happening across a large group of customers to try and find clients falling into bad health and proactively reach out to them if they have stopped using the tool. The benefits also extend to our product team to track the effectiveness of new feature releases. Also, the sales team has not yet implemented it, but it will be helpful for them to track how various leads are using the software during their trials.,Support and Customer Success have been very helpful in teaching/coaching and responding quickly. Tool has never gone down or let us down when we needed to access important data. Interface and usability is super straightforward and easy to use. They are consistently releasing new, relevant features.,if you connect through segment.io it requires you to go one plan higher on segment in order to use totango (but it's not a lot of money), Sometimes the totango created 'engagement' score can be a bit tricky to understand rather than our own created health metrics and health scores we use totango for.,10,Saved a lot of time for CSMs and gave them solid insights into the health of certain accounts and if they are using the tool. We have not tracked the specific dollar amount that we have earned from our investment in terms of dollars retained or upsold as a direct result of the Totango software. Increase in win rate on disputes over payment with clients when we started using Totango.,9,,It takes two to TotangoTotango is used to provide business intelligence to Customer Success, Consulting, Onboarding, Professional Services, Sales, Marketing, and Support groups.,Intuitive Design Reliable Fast,Newness of the Enterprise platform is apparent.

Could not live without it at this point.We implemented ToTango to get a better view of how our customers were behaving, and to trigger specific activities at certain points in the customer lifecycle. Our issue was that we had lots of customers and lots of data that we weren't using, as we had scarce people resources. ToTango now powers our entire customer lifecycle, as well as targeted CS, training, and upsell efforts. It has been pivotal for our Customer Success department, and I cannot imagine functioning without it now.,Mapping out the customer journey based on points that you customize. Executing cost efficient campaigns based on product usage. Managing a lot of customers with a small team.,A bit of a learning curve going in. Would like to have some improved logic in the filters/ health profiles. If/and/not/else functions would be amazing.,10,Much better retention. No more customers falling through the cracks. We have the entire journey mapped out now with accountability. Having a better understanding of how people use our product.,,Salesforce App Cloud, Zendesk,1 to 5 people,Salesforce SplunkWish we had Totango a year ago- great product!Our Customer Success department uses Totango. It allows us to get insight into the health of our customers and helps us turn that insight into action.,Insight into customer health. This is critical to retention rate, and Totango has sophisticated abilities to determine and measure health. Automated internal tasks. Based on user actions or health status, you can automatically assign tasks to team members to take action. Automated emails. Based on user actions or health status, you can automatically send emails to customers.,Project management. There is some functionality in this area, but we are currently using an external application for project management for our onboarding process in order to handle the advanced functionality we need.,9,We are still measuring this, but already I can see that it has prompted me to reach out to customers that were possibly at risk of churn and engage them. I may not have known about that customer's churn risk without Totango.,,Smartsheet,1 to 5 people,10,9,SalesforceWhen it comes to Business Totango is your AdviserTotango is mainly used to find our clients' usage of our software. We do get good updates about what modules they use and how many minutes they use as well as how well they use the software. We can also get the following information: Customers usage Appointments through online softwareUsage frequencyMonthly and weekly updates on usage Totango also helps us to forecast whether the doctor will renew the software subscription or will be churn. It also helps us keep track of whether the doctor has been trained for the software or needs to be trained.,Updates about software usage Keeping track of different modules used by the customer Tags and comments along with a summary of calls we make to doctors Overall health of doctors,Tags always disappear Some SubIds are only 3 digits, those SubIds won't load up Search should have option to search with mobile number/name/clinic name/ subid Timeline should be the first since it's more important,7,8,Multiple Products Customer Success Managers,200,51 to 100 people,5,Renewal Health Forecast,Touchpoints Task creation for follow up Tags for generalizing,Forecast with the usage Missing tags Touch points are small,4,No,Price Product Reputation Vendor Reputation Analyst Reports,Don't know,Yes,Lot of inputs and changes Employees feel more complex to shift Less training on how to use it,5,No,5,Yes,Before we started using totango, we used to use Google sheets and forms to do our math as well as analysis.

Well, all together it was good.,Touchpoint Tags User information,Different modules used Reading a full touch point Health of a month,No,8,3,5Totango: Organize the Chaos of Customer SuccessTotango is used by our Account Management, Customer Success, and Product teams to track customer engagement in the TrackMaven platform, our interactions with them, and to help set tasks that we need to complete with the customers. It also allows us to track customer health by seeing how much they are interacting with our platform and what modules they use.,Allows you to see an in-depth view of how your customers are interacting with your product in terms of both time spent and what parts they use. Helps multiple teams coordinate communications across accounts and track tasks that need to be fulfilled for the customer. Allows you to easily send outreach emails to wide segments of customers based on custom criteria.,The app itself can be pretty slow, especially when you are trying to perform activities across multiple accounts. It can be difficult to track large organizations who have multiple workspaces in our platform, particularly on an enterprise level.,8,Better intelligence on how customers are interacting with our platform. Better customer retention by being able to identify trends where a customer is likely to churn and addressing the problem before it's too late. Better communications across teams when it comes to customer outreach.,,,7Totango reviewMy team uses Totango across my organization. We use it to track customer usage, campaigns, tasks, and success plays.,Provides view into how/when/what our customers are using our platform. Before Totango, we didn't know this information. I find that it's a good indicator of renewals. I like the campaigns feature.,Totango isn't super easy to use. If you don't use the product for a couple weeks, it's hard to pick it back up. It's not completely connected to SFDC. There's some data that gets lost because of this. Would be nice for it to be an app on the SFDC platform.,8,I can now see customer usage, trending analysis, and automated campaigns. I'm not sure what my retention rate would be if I didn't have Totango. Totango sales and implementation (Val) was a great experience. I believe the sales people (George) who sold to me are gone but they represented the company very well.,8,GainsightTotango is worth a shot, and constantly improving.All of our Customer Success team uses Totango to monitor customer health and activity, as well as track touchpoints. It helps us to know the current customer health, get alerted about changes in health, and perform actions and tasks based on that health. Before we used it, we could only use our own metrics to gauge their usage, but now we can track clicks, actions, and users and set health scores based on it.,Tracking logins and clicks on certain areas of our site. Create automated tasks based on health score or actions. Look at overall team performance based on customer health.,As a management tool there are many areas and feature that could be built. Currently it's mainly a CSM tool, as opposed to a tool for managers of CSMs. Creating tasks that aren't based on account - this would help us to use the tool to manage overall and would increase daily usage for managers and CSMs. Email reporting is limited to 10 accounts - it would be great to see much more in reports (such as all accounts in bad health).,9,Better service because we can focus on customers that are in poor health. Better management because we can see how customer health is related to each CSM. Increased accountability because we can track CSM tasks.,9,Multiple Products Customer Success Managers,Gainsight,11 to 25 people,Salesforce.com, MarketoExperience with TotangoWe use Totango to track our customers' accounts and every feature available on Totango helps in various ways especially in pulling out reports.,Tracking usage of our customers' accounts Task reminders Easy reports,Bugs in Totango lead to loss of touchpoints Delay in updates; if there is change in usage/details of our customer, Totango takes time/Fails to update on their account Slow at times,9,Better customer retention Increased number of sales Improved customer satisfaction,51 to 100 people,9To TangoTotango is being used to monitor all Doctor accounts and last updates made on them. We monitor the usage of the doc and which details are missing in his profile, training, etc. This helps other agents who take up the account to have a fair idea of what was already happening with the Concerned Doc.,Totango helps generate detailed reports. It's a single interface where you collect multiple aspects within. It is easy access to overview and observe workflow.

We are at the beginning of the process.,Gainsight,1 to 5 people,5,Salesforce Internal platform Survey MonkeyNew Totango User - Totango is doing the trick!We use Totango along with Salesforce to give us telemetry on our current customers, mainly to help us with users in 3 phases: 1) Onboarding 2) Middle of their term 3) Towards their renewal time The Customer Success department is the main user of Totango. It solves the business problem of having a single point (tool) that gives us information on our customers without having to jump between systems.,Bubbles up all assigned accounts and shows a health score - either good, average, or poor. Totango does a great job with renewals in the Revenue Center. Very easy to deal with upsells, downgrades, etc. The tasks assigned to specific accounts is great. There is a bit of room for improvement here, but it's nice to be able to designate tasks per account.,Infinite scroll on the account list would be nice. Pagination is so 2005! Would be nice to have some sort of email integration. I realize this isn't the space Totango is trying to play in, but would be nice to have some sort of integration here.,9,We are new with Totango, but so far, it's been great in getting a per-month view on customer revenue (when they are up for renewal). Having a view on health trends allows us to act sooner than later on customers whose health report has dipped.

It is being used by our customer success department. Totango helps us identify which customers are at risk of churning by monitoring their health. it looks at how frequently they use the software as well as which features they are using. For us to keep our customers long term, it is important that they use our software regularly for everything that it is capable of handling. Because of Totango, we are able to identify customers who are not deeply invested in our software so we can contact them and help them fully adopt.,Totango helps us identify customers that are at risk of churning so we can contact them and address their needs. It helps us manage our new customers so we can make sure they are properly set up with the software and receive the training they need. It also helps us track billing issues with our customers.,We use the success plays that are built into Totango, however, some of our plays involve many phases or steps. Totango is not good at linking these together as it lists them all individually. We rely on reviewing comments to understand what was talked about in previous conversations with customers. The touch-points are easily lost in the noise of all of the automated comments created by Totango for each account.,9,We have reduced churn since we implemented the customer success department. Totango has been a huge part in targeting at risk clients. Totango has helped us manage onboarding of new customers.,1 to 5 people,We have integrated our own in house customer management program.Excellent product and service.We are currently implementing Totango with our Customer Success department. Initially we are implementing it across four products with plans to roll out to all of our product lines.,Customer Service and Customer Success are the biggest strengths for Totango. They have a great product but what makes it really stand out is their employees' willingness to go above and beyond to make sure that their customers are successful. They have a rapid development cycle which allows them to implement new changes and features quickly and efficiently without compromising code quality. Totango is a web based application and they have employees working worldwide. This means that they get internationalization and that there is always someone available to assist if needed.,This isn't actually a problem, but because of the rapid development cycle you will see features that start out a bit clunky. Totango managers reach out though and walk through the new features with us and watch to see where the 'pain points' are to identify where features can be improved and enhanced; this level of service and attention to detail sets the bar higher for all of us. I would like to see more of the configuration exposed in the settings so that we can make changes without having to submit a change through our representative. As we implement it is nice to be able to quickly make a change and then test it out without extra communication.,10,We are still in implementation so we don't know yet - however, we have already noticed some trends with our data that we are looking at to see what we can do better.,Salesforce,JIRA Software, Visual Studio.NET, Eclipse Luna,6 to 10 people,At this point, we have integrated four of our products - three using Javascript actions posted directly to Totango and one using Integration Hub.

I use it to see if our customers are active users and which products they're utilizing the most.,Seeing how often our customers are using our products. Finding out key contacts to reach out to those who are highly active or inactive users. Running reports on different customer segments.,Pulling reports isn't super easy.

Previously, we had several systems, including a home grown CRM to track customer information so data was dispersed across many platforms. This helped to consolidate platforms as well as provide a single pane of glass for all information regarding a customer.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Primarily customer success and support is making use of Totango. We are using the tool to track user engagement to see the various actions specific users are taking. This helps us better understand use cases and challenges a user my face. Beyond that, it gives a nice quick glance into seeing what is happening across a large group of customers to try and find clients falling into bad health and proactively reach out to them if they have stopped using the tool.

The benefits also extend to our product team to track the effectiveness of new feature releases.

Also, the sales team has not yet implemented it, but it will be helpful for them to track how various leads are using the software during their trials.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We implemented ToTango to get a better view of how our customers were behaving, and to trigger specific activities at certain points in the customer lifecycle. Our issue was that we had lots of customers and lots of data that we weren't using, as we had scarce people resources. ToTango now powers our entire customer lifecycle, as well as targeted CS, training, and upsell efforts. It has been pivotal for our Customer Success department, and I cannot imagine functioning without it now.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Totango is mainly used to find our clients' usage of our software. We do get good updates about what modules they use and how many minutes they use as well as how well they use the software. We can also get the following information:
  • Customers usage
  • Appointments through online software
  • Usage frequency
  • Monthly and weekly updates on usage
Totango also helps us to forecast whether the doctor will renew the software subscription or will be churn. It also helps us keep track of whether the doctor has been trained for the software or needs to be trained.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

All of our Customer Success team uses Totango to monitor customer health and activity, as well as track touchpoints. It helps us to know the current customer health, get alerted about changes in health, and perform actions and tasks based on that health. Before we used it, we could only use our own metrics to gauge their usage, but now we can track clicks, actions, and users and set health scores based on it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Totango is being used to monitor all Doctor accounts and last updates made on them. We monitor the usage of the doc and which details are missing in his profile, training, etc. This helps other agents who take up the account to have a fair idea of what was already happening with the Concerned Doc.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Totango along with Salesforce to give us telemetry on our current customers, mainly to help us with users in 3 phases:
1) Onboarding
2) Middle of their term
3) Towards their renewal time

The Customer Success department is the main user of Totango. It solves the business problem of having a single point (tool) that gives us information on our customers without having to jump between systems.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Totango to manage the health of our customers who are using the monthly subscription version of our software. It is being used by our customer success department. Totango helps us identify which customers are at risk of churning by monitoring their health. it looks at how frequently they use the software as well as which features they are using. For us to keep our customers long term, it is important that they use our software regularly for everything that it is capable of handling. Because of Totango, we are able to identify customers who are not deeply invested in our software so we can contact them and help them fully adopt.
